Kaspersky Internet Security 2009, 1-Desktop, 1 year Subscription (PC)

Kaspersky Internet Security 2009, 2008-11-13
Great product. Deleted my expiring software and loaded Kaspersky. Simple to load and configure, no problems or dramas. My machine is now faster than ever and much quicker to boot up than before.

In terms of protection, only time will tell, but so far so good. Fully recommended.

Office 2008 for Mac, Home and Student Edition (Mac)

surprisingly good, 2008-11-28
i've just made the move from pc to mac. my only big concern was compatibility, but i am happy to say that i have been surprised at how easy and compatible my mac and its software have proved. this is largely due to this product, office 08 for mac. a different interface from the pc 2007 version i also use, which adds 5 mins per piece of work the first few times you use it. But pretty soon, its just as usable, and has opened up all my previous pc based work to my new mac world... i am a very happy customer/ user!

Bottom Line: The best of the best in office applications...

Kaspersky Internet Security 2009, 3-Desktop, 1 year Subscription (PC)

the best virus protection on the market, 2008-10-23
This high quality virus protection software really is the best available to buy at the minute. It is much better than the likes of Norton, mcafee etc which seem to be more widelly available. I purchased this product on amazon for approx £30 with a 3person license usage, therefore costing £10 per pc, however its available on ebuyer.com for £20 at the minute.

This product came through today, and here I am typing this review out with, I can't believe it I've suffered with dyslexia all my life and this feels like I have just been released into a whole new world, if like me you've always been afraid to type a review, then fear no more.

Get it, try it and don't worry about the bad reviews, you want be disappointed.

Acronis True Image Home 2009

Good but has major problems - Upgraders read first!, 2008-11-28
I've been using the previous Acronis True Image for 2 years now to back up over 40Gb of work data on a daily basis. I've always found it a real gem, so I decided to get the newer "better" version and upgrade to 2009. The manual states that you can just install 2009 straight over the top of previous versions, which sounded very useful.

After installation had completed (a hideous experience that I've described below) I was pleased to see that the interface had been overhauled, and presented lots of clear and easy-to-understand options with context-sensitive help at the bottom of each page.
The one-click backup solution is useful if you don't really understand the different types of backups available (full, differential, & incremental).

The pretty interface soon lost its novelty value though, as a rediculous number of issues took hold. I've detailed some of these annoyances:

- The software uses a 64 digit serial code. How much time do Acronis think we've got to waste?!
- Nearly all serial numbers are shipped as being faulty! This is an ACKNOWLEDGED PROBLEM on Acronis' web site and you should register online instead of through the software itself. Also note that the registration URL is case-sensitive! If you don't read the pamphlet in the box I'd hate to guess how long it would take you to figure all this out!
- Following installation the software would not update online. I got two errors each time and updating failed. This is just not acceptable in this day and age where online updates are critical to maintain performance.
- After installation a reboot is required. I forgot to take out the CD and so Acronis booted into rescue mode. It was then I found out my Wireless Microsoft keyboard and mouse DID NOT WORK in rescue mode! Thank goodness I still own my old wired hardware, but not many modern PC's are even shipped with wired devices. Another totally unacceptable problem.
- My main gripe is that 2009 removed ALL my previous backup schedules! I had to go and set each one up again which is absolutely rediculous when the manual claims to "simply update" the software
- The "Search" tool is a blatant advertisement for Google Desktop and Windows Desktop Search, demanding either is installed in order for it to work.
- The backup wizard only has a NEXT button, and no BACK button. Therefore you've got to use the side panel to navigate back a step if you need to change anything. A small issue but a bit weird!

So will I keep version 2009? Well, now I've gone to the trouble of setting up all the schedules again, yes I will. I'm not impressed with it however, and if you have the previous version then I recommend sticking with it, because the new options don't warrant either the money or time to upgrade it.

McAfee Total Protection 2009 - 3 User

Great software - Great price!, 2008-11-29
This is my second year of mcafee security and it does not let down. The interface is fantastically easy to use, and stays firmly in the background, only letting you know its there if it brings something to your attention. I like this as with Norton, I couldn't stand the annoying updates windows!! It is easy to request a quick scan, or even a deep clean of your computer and registry. Other feature I found useful was the tabs to overpower windows defence systems and use the much more useful Mcafee software. It also lets you help set up a network, and keeps this protected, ideal for more than one pc in the house. It even gives 3 pc's protection for the year. However, do note that the year starts for all 3 pc's as soon as the first one has it installed. At the minute is half price, you will be lucky to find it cheaper anywhere else in my opinion.
